Price Peek: What $1M Buys You in Salt Lake City

Price Peek is a blog series that takes us throughout Utah to explore real estate in different price points in select neighborhoods.

In our last edition, we sought out to find what $2.6 million affords us in Park City. This time, we’re traveling to the state’s capital to see what a generous budget of $1 million (and slightly over/under), buys us in the Crossroads of the West. Let’s take a look at some of our choices.

This remarkable home was originally built in 1912 and showcases its historic roots in its classic architecture, original gum wood, extensive mill-work and stained lead glass windows. Delightful updates have been made throughout, beautifully transitioning the home from old to new. Living spaces boast custom designs and details with a gourmet kitchen that has been completely renovated providing modern function with an extra-large hidden pantry. The home’s four bedrooms are bright and spacious, with the original maid’s quarters expanding outdoors to a rooftop deck. Outdoors, you’ll find a backyard with a custom glass water feature and a hot tub surrounded by ironwood decking.

Surrounded by nature and boasting stunning Mount Olympus views, this secluded retreat has been completely renovated with custom finishes, hardwood floors and large windows that bring in light. There are two living spaces – one in each of the home’s two floors, two master suites and two kitchens. The home is located on a half-acre lot that’s surrounded by nature and is graced by the sounds of the flowing Mill Creek.

Located in the new walkable Sugarhouse district, this spectacular rambler is only a five-minute drive to downtown and 20 minutes to Park City. White oak floors, granite counters, fresh paint, heated floors, vaulted ceilings and even a mother-in-law apartment are some of the perks of this four-bedroom home. Entertain your guests in the beautiful backyard with a heated pool during the hot summer days as the nearby mountains serve as a peaceful backdrop.
